P82H9_PURE_Myelin_Basic_Antibody_1_092017
Western blot of anti-Myelin Basic Protein antibody (clone P82H9) and isotype-matched IgG1 control. Blots were incubated with anti-MBP at 1 µg/ml (left) or IgG1 isotype control antibody (right) overnight at 4°C, followed by the incubation with horseradish peroxidase labeled goat anti-mouse secondary antibody. Enhanced chemiluminescence was used as the detection system. MW: molecular weight marker; human brain lysates: 20 µg rat brain lysates: 20 µg.

Description

Myelin basic protein (MBP) is a protein involved in the myelination of nerves in the central nervous system (CNS). MBP functions to maintain the correct structure of myelin, through its interaction with the lipids in the myelin membrane. The myelin sheath is made up of MBP and lipids, and acts as an insulator to increase the velocity of axonal impulse conduction. MBP plays a central role in the demyelinating disease multiple sclerosis (MS). A hallmark of the disease is the loss of the myelin sheath surrounding nerves, thought to be induced by antibodies against MBP.

Antigen Details

Structure
Myelin Basic Protein is a 304 amino acid protein with a molecular mass of 33kD.
Distribution

Tissue distribution: Central and peripheral nervous systems
Cellular distribution: Cytoskeleton, plasma membrane, cytosol, and extracellular

Function
Classic MBP isoforms (4-14) are the most abundant protein components of the myelin membrane in the CNS. They play a role in both its formation and stabilization. The non-classic isoforms may have a role in the early developing brain long before myelination.
